Blossoms in the Dust is a Excellent Powerful Moving True Story Drama. As others have noted--since it is a true story film--this is an added plus. One reason to see this film alone is Greer Garson. Her acting is superb. She is one of my all time favorite actress's of yesteryear. Walter Pidgeon is wonderful also. Some others that have commented on this film have said that it was fine but their one negative was that the phrase "Darling" was used to much. Yes this is true--but hey folks this was a very common popular word used a lot in the 30's & 40" films.-No big deal--at least it is clean & for all family member's. This great story is basically about Edna-played by Garson who marries Sam-played by Pidgeon-an operator of a wheat mill. They have a son who is killed when he is young. Edna discovers by chance how the law treats children who are without parents & decides to do something about it. She opens a home for foundlings & orphans & begins to place children in good homes-despite the opposition of conservative citizens-narrow minded back them of this subject matter-who would condemn illegitimate children being born out of wedlock. She them fights for them through the court. This is a great classic film.
